Fair enough, I am a hawks fan, I was pleased with their come back.

It was a 3 point game with 2 minutes left. Maybe the headline is slightly misleading for what kind of effort the Hawks put forth in the 2nd half.

Admittedly biased Hawks fan here, but in fairness to Teague he had been getting hacked all game without getting calls.

This is why pro basketball is the best sport but the weakest Deadspin bait.

Headline: “CLOBBERED”

Up here in Minnesota there was a lot of watching with hands covering faces. Hopefully Sam Mitchell realizes the folly of giving the B-Squad too much playing time even with a 30 point lead.

Diana, I appreciate the hard work you put into assembling and writing this story.

Fuck Tucker Max.

Dan Savage, really? He hates him some fat people and bi people.

“My bad behavior is some woman’s fault.”

Apparently so would some other print writers:

A few things....

You’re simply wrong about TJ. Good family man, and his getting on the case of douches like Steve Alford and Jim Mora Jr is hall of fame worthy.

“T.J. Simers, to put it bluntly, was a terrible columnist, embodying every cliche imaginable about the old, out of touch, cranky, hack of a print newspaper sports columnist.”

Isn't that what you do already.... Minus the cash

Someone sounds a little jealous

Scenario 1: You trade for him this season. You sit him on the bench, paying his salary. You look at him next pre-season. If he doesn’t work out, you cut him. If he does work out, you keep him and have to pay him $16 million, in the upper echelon of starters.

Yeah but one headline gets clicks and the other doesn’t.

I was just thinking that. The team is already playing with a “physically gifted QB that can’t read defenses”, why not try the same thing with a different guy.

Feel like there’s a slight difference between “Nobody wants RGIII” and “Nobody RGIII at $16M”
